The Isley Brothers are the greatest r&b groups ever. Masters of smooth soul, quiet storm music. They got endless hits from 50s-2020s if you delve in their catalogue

[@ellisisland1374]

FACTS!❤Timeless music!

[@calmnrelaxed]

They have a vast catalog, but the Isley Brothers sound that most are familiar with started in 1973 and last until 83. This is because they added their 2 younger brothers (Marvin and Ernie) and their brother in law (Chris Jasper). Chris was the main driver of the new music, the sound we've all come recognize as the quintessential Isley Brothers sound.

While people are always going to focus on the smooth lyrics of Ronald, the one everyone is asleep on is Dr. Ernie Isley, the self-taught guitarist who started out as the band's drummer. He wrote this song as well as most of the Isley Bros hits. He has written and played guitar for everyone from Janet Jackson and Jimi Hendrix to Joss Stone, which is why he is in the Songwriter's Hall of Fame. His achievements in music earned him an honorary doctorate degree from the Barklee School of Music back in 2016.

[@MzBettyK]

Thanks so much for this valuable information. I love to hear Ernie, but did not know these wonderful things about him.

The Isley Brothers kept up with the changes in music for over 30 years. Jimmy Hendrix was a part of this group in the early 60s.

[@electric8668]

It's Jimi Hendrix but ok

[@sammy260]

One of my favorite groups. No one can touch them.

[@lightshadow44]

The Brothers had that blend of fire rock guitar with all those expressive deep notes. Easily one of the best groups in history

[@dlove7141]

That Intro THOUGH!!!.. pure 🔥 date night playlist for sure

[@smartchick649]

One of the most beautiful songs ever made. 🤦🏾‍♀️💯🙏🏽

[@whn3344]

Man, I knew you’d flip when you heard that intro guitar rip 🔥😂

[@arthurlangford5861]

The Isley Brothers were a real band in the 3+3 era of the group from 1970 to 1984. The older brothers on vocals were Rudolph, O'kelly and Ronald. The younger brothers were Ernie on guitar (with the face melting solos), Marvin on bass and their brother in law Chris Jasper on keyboards! Their catalog is deep! The older Isley's had been out there doin' it since the mid 50's and the younger brothers joined them in the late 60's. The Isley's were the most versatile band out there during their heyday! R&B,SOUL, ROCK hybrid! Fast, mid tempo & slow jams.....They could do it all! They wrote and produced 99% of their music and put it out under their own family-owned and run T-Neck records! True artists and pioneers!

[@bertc2314]

I see you guys are down with these brothers, this is back in my day. You are right they are "Deep" and I have a few of their albums including their greatest hits, which is a double album.

[@ellisisland1374]

Good detailed post!🙂

[@arthurlangford5861]

@ellisisland1374 The Isley Brothers are my favorite band! I have lived and breathed them since I fell in love with their sound in 1973 at the age of 9! They're music is still in my daily playlist, and I believe they are one of the most underrated groups of the 20th century! R.I.P. brother Rudolph Isley, who joins brothers O'Kelley and Marvin in the heavenly band and choir. 🎙🎸 🕊🕊🕊😪

[@traceyrankin936]

In the beginning Jimi Hendrix was the guitarist and lived with them and their family for awhile. Maybe where Ernie picked up the guitar. He was originally a drummer.

[@cameronallen6146]

Ernie Isley on that guitar riff legendary

[@chillyice3573]

First Isley Brothers song??!! My all time favorite!!!!

[@ThePasterio]

The beginning of the song and thru the song. is a guitar solo by brotha Ernie Isley. An unheralded guitarist 🎸 6:12

[@chocobrown79]

This is my FAVORITE song by them! 💯❤️🔥 It's BEEN on my " playlist " for DECADES! 😂

[@jrumm1206]

Quiet Storms on the radio back in the day always included, "Side 1 Isley Brothers, Then Side 2".

Ernie Isley taught Jimi Hendrix how to strum the guitar

[@KRISKOWS]

Was an era time when strong song writing, singing, & actual instruments existed ** too bad that you probably aren't old enough to have experienced this song when it hit the airwaves- It was bananas

I’m fifty eight, and I like the fact she’s enjoying the music from my youth.

[@lisae9958]

As a teen, I grew up with the Isleys of the 70s - the BEST decade of music ever. For me, their music has a haunting quality that makes my soul move. Their music is the soundtrack of my high school days and I'm Blessed for it🤗🎶

[@adublbeatz8656]

They have so many "go-to" songs.....This is one of many!!

[@ellisisland1374]

You can never go wrong with the Isley Brothers music!❤ Simply timeless!👏

[@MoReeCio]

*Stumbled upon this video* While viewing, I was thinking to myself: "How do you go your whole urban life without hearing this hit by The Isleys?" You mean no one's BBQ, Old school skate night, Drunk Uncle house party, XM radio Heart & Soul station.. NO WHERE did this song just so happen to grace your ear drums at any point in life..? 🤦🏽‍♂️ Well im glad she's now in the loop & hope that she has since explored the lovely catelog that is The Isley Brothers. CHEERS TO GREAT MUSIC 🥂 ✌🏾🤎✊🏾

[@mostmost1]

In Chicago this is also called "A steppers cut".

[@darrelljennings4059]

i love that you appreciate our music . i played all them songs in my uncles band in the 70s-80s back in philly bass and guitar

[@djrh3690]

The Isley Brothers NEVER disappointed! Must do “Between the Sheets”…

[@MarcusWilliams-jp6hy]

That’s actually the same person. Ronald Isley is also Mr. Biggs on the R. Kelly tracks. Check out “Sensuality”, “Make Me Say It Again, Girl” and “Don’t Say Goodnight”. Definitely worth a review.

[@princedejour2686]

The Isley Brother's make some of the greatest Love Songs and Baby Making music! They are Essential Great R&B/Soul Music!! We used to call tgese Panty Dropping Music!!!!!

Some of the greatest slow jams are from The Isley Brothers. Their uptempos are the jam also but their slow jams are ridiculous. The is Ronolds younger brother Ernie on guitar. Hes first lessons were givin to him by the great Jimi Hendrix who started out as a member of The Isley Brothers band. The Isleys go back, its a rabbit hole of great music.

This is my favorite song. I wasnt even born when this song was made but this song is bittersweet. I fount out my ex was pregnant by another dude, and this song had just came on the radio, it felt like my subconscious was talking to me, usually as crazy as it seems relationships tend to drag on and on regardless of infidelity or deciet, yet when this came on, deep down i knew me and her was over, we would never be the same, and yet at the same time i love the guitar it relaxes my soul. I can listen to this song a billion times and never get tired of it

[@transgressionsofthelaw]

This song has insinuations of reincarnation, so maybe in another life, me n her can try again. This time in paradise

[@hebrew26commandmentspower55]

This is a very deep song .... Atlantis is a metaphor for a deeper meaning. .... This song is really about a deal with the devil .... Atlantis is basically symbolism for the riches and the vast wealth and lands that the devil promises to offer to whoever shall take the quote-unquote trip...... He promises things that you would never seen if you shall take the deal... For the first half of the song Ron is deciding whether he should take the deal or not.... By the end of the song he chooses to take the deal.. the misty lady that he's talkin about is really the devil ... And him sending the hook at the end of the song for almost a minute-and-a-half is basically him knowing that he accepted the deal and that regardless of him wanting to go back on the deal it'll always haunt him because he knows what he's seen on his rise to power in the things he acquired through the deal.... This song has a very deep story playing out it

Ernie Isley is a legendary guitar player for good reason. If you saw them live he would do a lot of the tricks more commonly associated with his friend and brief band member Jimi Hendrix who I think went by Jimmy Hendrix at the time.

Ron Isley is the lead singer & Ernie Isley is the guitar you hear in the background.
